Oh, be still my beating heart!

Hot on the heels of the news that Benedict Cumberbatch will be returning for a WHOLE series of Sherlock (YAY!), it’s been revealed that our favourite floppy-haired actor will be teaming up with Johnny Depp in upcoming film Black Mass.

Benedict Cumberbatch AND Johnny Depp in the same film? Nope, you haven’t died and gone to heaven, this is really happening (PLEASE let this happen. PLEASE!).

Benedict is thought to be replacing Guy Pearce in the film, which tells the story of US mobster Whitey Bulger, played by Johnny.

He’s tipped for the role of Whitey’s straight-laced brother Billy Bulger in the flick, which is expected to be released next year.

What a week for Cumber*******! Now, Johnny, are you sure you want to marry Amber Heard, really?
